NHS vs Nursing Homes, the answer to the question depends on what you want to achieve or prove in your life or nursing career. People have differences of opinion. Below are the pros and cons for each:

NHS  Pros 

  • You get varied opportunities to learn and progress in your nursing career
  • You can learn more advanced skills
  • You can see the wide variety of complex nursing care needs and the constant changing of patients

NHS Cons

  • You can have an organised routine
